FP review May 31, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Hi, I had taken a 5 year sabbatical from Medicine (Boarded in ER and FP) so I had to take the SPEX as well as the FP Boards, and along with online CME sites, I primarily used this book - I took notes, then took "notes on my notes" - so I basically knew it backwards and forwards (I went through it 3 times). Not only did I EASILY pass the SPEX, but the FP Boards as well. I now find that being back in Medicine, just with doing this, I am well ahead of most of my practicing collegues. I found this a GREAT resource and would highly reccomend it!
helped with boards July 30, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
My scores are not back yet, but I can already tell that this review book helped. There were questions in there that reviewed things that I don't think I had learned previously that were asked on the test.
If the test is anything like this good luck July 20, 2007 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
The questions are convoluted like another reviewer states. If you memorize the book, you'll be in good shape. These obstruse answers are stupid and have no application to the real world. The straight forward questions will be recognized by all. If the test is like Bratton's one might stand a chance. God save family practice it it's anything like this.
